Seed Merchants, Swainseeds Seal

SWAINSEEDS Bag Seal, Image by StuE, Found by Saxonman.
Found in Beccles Suffolk.

Looks to be SWAINSEEDS written across the middle and from another seal BRISTOL is known to be beneath. On the other side is a double triangle.

From Andy King, Senior Collections Officer, Industrial & Maritime History & Working Exhibits M Shed, Bristol Museum & Art Gallery:-
"Ward's [see Ward & Company seal] were seed merchants throughout that period [1870 to 1940]. Similarly Swain, who doesn't make an appearance in the local trade directories until the 1930s."
